What kind of ACPI error? What problem do these errors cause? How old is your "older machine"? Do you get these ACPI errors with LibreELEC 8.2.1?

Yes they occur in the official build too, no they cause no problems at all.

It's an old HP with no bios update that I can find (which I found would likely fix the issue)

I found something about changing the loglevel to 3 to get rid of these messages, but I just can't figure out if that's possible.

Where are those messages appearing? Once at boot (hidden behind the splash) or constantly?

mount /flash rw edit the relevant config add quiet loglevel=0 behind it - try

They are appearing just at boot but right before the splash screen... I will try your fix and report back, thanks!

Could you be more specific - does it make the problem worse, or no change at all? Have you tried changing between limited and full in Settings > System > Display? What is your system - this is specific to Intel GPUs. Can you post a link to the output from "/usr/bin/xrandr -display :0 --verbose | pastebinit"   

It looks like no change at all. Yes, I've tried changing between limited and full under the Display settings. "Limited" is closer to being correct in video. "Full" crushes the brights and darks.

In the interface and static images "Full" is brighter and closer to the proper colorspace.

I'm running on an Intel Asus Chromebox

 Thanks that worked perfectly, now my libreelec no longer looks broken!

I am using an Nvidia 460 GTX and an hevc video I am playing is software decoding. Is this expected? about a dozen other videos all playback with hardware decoding.

The options for which decoding to enable or disable is slightly confusing. I have the three top ones on and the last off... is that right?

Enable debugging, reboot, play the video, post the link to your debug log.

Assuming you mean the "Processing" options (ie. hardware acceleration), that sounds about right (Nvidia/AMD GPUs use VDPAU, Intel GPUs use VAAPI).

Does this only happen with certain files, or everything?

Can you upload a sample file that triggers the crash? 
It has crashed with anything.  I am thinking that there may be an issue with the hardware.  I have seen freezing in the bios now, and installed windows 10 as a test.  I had BSOD while installing WIN 10, and also with the OS after completely installed.

Knowing that others use this box without issue, makes me think I have something else going on.  Rather than waste anyone's time at this point, I am going to test fully with WIN 10.

If I can get windows 10 stable, and still have issues with LE, I will post back.  Thanks for the help.

 If it's hevc-10 bit: Yes, that's expected.

Run https://www.memtest86.com in case it's a faulty stick of RAM.

 I rebooted and suddenly it was hardware decoding, thanks!
